Long Description | The New York Times bestseller, now available in paperback— the riveting and little-known story of a group of female members of the French resistance who were deported together to Auschwitz, a remarkable number of whom survived . In January 1943, 230 women of the French Resistance were sent to the death camps by the Nazis who had invaded and occupied their country. This is their story, told in full for the first time—a searing and unforgettable chronicle of terror, courage, defiance, survival, and the power of friendship. Caroline Moorehead, a distinguished biographer, human rights journalist, and the author of Dancing to the Precipice and Human Cargo , brings to life an extraordinary story that readers of Mitchell Zuckoff’s Lost in Shangri-La , Erik Larson’s In the Garden of Beasts , and Laura Hillenbrand’s Unbroken will find an essential addition to our retelling of the history of World War II—a riveting, rediscovered story of courageous women who sacrificed everything to combat the march of evil across the world. |

PDF417 Barcode
PDF417 (Portable Data File 417) is a high-capacity two-dimensional barcode symbology capable of encoding large amounts of data in a relatively small space. Developed by Dr. Ynjiun P. Wang at Symbol Technologies in the mid-1990s, PDF417 consists of stacked rows of variable-width bars and spaces arranged in a grid pattern. It can encode a variety of data types, including text, numbers, and binary data, making it suitable for a wide range of applications such as transportation, ticketing, identification, and inventory management. PDF417 barcodes are highly versatile and can store up to 1.1 kilobytes of data, making them ideal for situations where extensive information needs to be encoded on a single barcode.
One of the key features of PDF417 is its robust error correction capability, which ensures accurate data retrieval even in cases of partial damage or distortion of the barcode. PDF417 uses Reed-Solomon error correction codes to detect and correct errors in the encoded data, providing a high level of reliability in scanning and decoding. Additionally, PDF417 barcodes can be read omnidirectionally, allowing for quick and efficient scanning from any orientation. This makes PDF417 suitable for use in environments where barcode labels may be presented to scanners in varying orientations, such as on mobile devices or in high-speed scanning applications. Overall, PDF417 offers a powerful solution for encoding and retrieving large volumes of data in a compact and efficient format.
PDF stands for Portable Data File and 4 indicates that each section of the code is made of 4 bars and stripes by 17 units. These can be between 3 and 90 rows.
This symbol is like stacked sets of 1D barcodes. Both numbers and letters can be encoded into these symbols. The symbol is made up of start and stop patterns, left and right row indicators and the data blocks in the middle.
This symbology is in the public domain meaning that anyone can make use of it without dealing with licing issues. If you need to generate these types of codes, you might want to check out the www.racoindustries.com web site.
